I'm looking for definitive references for LOGO. I would like a book or books analogous to Kernighan and Ritchie for C, or Clocksin and Mellish for Prolog. Are there any such? I have found books of varying formality, but none that are really precise (although I'm still following up a couple of references); most books about logo are actually about education, and not really about the programming language. For example, I've not encountered a rigorous definition of a logo token, especially with respect to the meaning of backslash as either a special-character-preventer or the ``mod'' operator token. Another example: I don't have enough information to know whether or not the colon can be treated as a macro which expands to "thing", space, quote. e-mail please, and if you request I will summarize to the net. thanks in advance, ajr <flaps@dgp.utoronto.ca> or <flaps@dgp.toronto.edu> flaps at utorgpu on bitnet
